TASK DESCRIPTION
Downloading compact from
http://tools.wmflabs.org/pywikibot/ - the .zip doesn't
contain any data in .git/refs/heads- which pybot requires to determine the version.
The following error occurs when I run generate-family-file.py on a newly unzipped zip
from tools.wmflabs
```
D:\Pybot>generate_family_file.py
